It (XNC) sorta reminded me of Destination from Brood War. I like maps with only 2-3 spawn points because otherwise the games get more random and less skill-based. At least the two replacement maps are 2-position, that's actually really good (for my personal reference at least). I'm sure I could like one or both of the maps just as much as Xelnaga Caverns (and maybe get a better win-rate regardless), even though I'm sick of closed-natural maps. It's forcing too much of a 1-way play style with these maps that have closed naturals — I guess it did have issues though — FFE is very difficult (or impossible?) to hold vs strong offensive builds, and zergs have considerable trouble defending open naturals too. In fact with Arid gone, there are no more maps with open naturals? Is there some kind of agreement that protoss needs to FFE to win or something? If anything, I find most of the protosses who FFE seem to complain more that they have no viable options. On February 12 2012 07:13 Nancial wrote: Yeah I agree. XNC can definitely run some serious macro games too though — it's not like any race is forced to 2 base or 3 base or all-in (at least, or especially considering the MULE change). I like it because the action can start early on, there's no free lunches where both sides just sit around and macro on 2 base not attacking each other until at least the 10 minute mark — it's boring and goes against much of what made Brood War great (although after 8 years of BW the games became very macro oriented and passive early on as well)fuck my life, why remove xelnaga... I'd seriously love to have one map that would stay with the game forever, for like 6-7 years without being replaced. hoped it would be xelnaga  i just hope they release wc4 sooner so i can forget about this fucking disappointing sc2 game where everyone wants their fucking macro games on huge maps... srsly ((On February 12 2012 08:18 Zaphid wrote: Just wait until they remove Metalopolis man ^^ XNC wasn't even in beta, compared to metal it's rather young map. I'd rather see metalopolis drop, just because blizzard never chose to fix the damn close positions. Same thing with Shattered temple. They're both old map with 4 spawns and lame close positions. | ||

I enjoyed Xel Naga though, even though its old, still was a solid map. Can you elaborate why it's a bad map? | ||

games are much more fun to play and to watch, if they consist of a lot of aggression and not 16 minute turtle with one big deciding fight at 18 minutes that ends the game | ||
